Below Are NOTES About Today's PODCAST (9-25-19):

"It is thus that they who cast ignorance from them like sleep do not consider it to be anything, nor regard its properties to be something real, but they renounce them like a dream in the night and they consider the knowledge of the Father to be the dawn.  It is thus that each one has acted, as if asleep, during the time of ignorance, and thus a person comes to understand, as if awakening. And happy is the one who comes to himself and awakens." (Valentinus)

"When the Father, who alone is good, visits the heart, he makes it holy and fills it with Light. And so a person who has such a heart is called blessed, for that person will see God." —  Valentinus of Alexandria

"Say, then, from the heart that you are the perfect day and in you dwells the Light that does not fail." — The Gospel of Truth, Saying 32

"May the Grace beyond time and space that was before the beginnings of the Universe fill our inner being and increase within us the semblance of itself as the grain of mustard seed." —  Valentinus

Today I share my research into the inner Sound mysticism of the Judeo-Christian traditions and Gnosticism. Before the Sufi mystics of Islam, in ancient times there were Gnostics: Jewish, Hermetic, and Christian mystics who described hearing the Sound, and seeing mystic visions of Light and the heavens while in deep states of meditation.

I want to make it clear, I have not read the Gnostic Gospels in entirety, though I have researched Gnosticism, and my research goes beyond the definition. I do not claim to know everything.

To those who consider themselves Gnostic Christians as of now (or to those who can answer these questions regardless), I have been led to believe by articles i’ve read, videos i’ve watched, parts of the Gnostic gospels i’ve read, and etc. that Gnostic Christians believe they get into heaven through knowledge / gnosis about their divine origin and inner divine spark rather than faith or belief. I do know that many teachings and practices of the Gnostic Christians are unknown, the same goes for many of their religious practices / traditions, and prayers, how do you ensure you’re praying and worshipping in a way that is right to your religion when such information on it is scarce?

The answer to this may be obvious, but if any Gnostic Christians could describe your faith and religious views it would be appreciated, as well as how you came to Gnosticism.
